Re: Rs 6000 powerful but tiny

And then came the Alpha .... but not in a sensible rack-mount for a couple of generations. Not until the AlphaServer 4x00 series if I remember correctly. While HP's rackmounts for the D- and K- series were a bit of a fudge Digital Equipment's approach was only a bastardised shelf-mount for the smaller boxes (headless workstations, 3000 AXP and AS 800) and possiblly the 2000. No way the 2100 or 4000 (Cobra family) could be mounted in any standard rack. Of course I'm discounting those models that were built into their own cabinet (7000 AXP and later).
